United States Marine Corps. Sgt. Shamar Thomas from Roosevelt, NY went toe to toe with the New York Police Department. An activist in the Occupy Wall Street movement, Thomas voiced his opinions of the NYPD police brutality that had and has been plaguing the #OWS movement.

Thomas is a 24-year-old Marine Veteran (2 tours in Iraq), he currently plays amateur football and is in college.

Thomas comes from a long line of people who sacrifice for their country: Mother, Army Veteran (Iraq), Step father, Army, active duty (Afghanistan), Grand father, Air Force veteran (Vietnam), Great Grand Father Navy veteran (World War II).

This is the kind of thing that I love to see. Although, I don't agree with everything that comes out of his mouth, the message to the police is quite clear. It basically breaks down to: If you want to fight people, join the military, that's what their for. The police are for keeping the peace and aiding those that are in need of assistance, not for bullying and hurting people.

You know they'd NEVER lay a hand on veterans. Especially in New York. This guy is awesome. This is what we need, our military men and women standing up to the police and protecting our countries from within. We are in current need of protection from our own governments and their agents called POLICE.
